2019 Israel Election
« on: April 04, 2019, 07:35:26 AM »
Pretty sure the same old hounds are nipping at Netanyahu - the doves, the democrats and their operatives back here, Soros and his sacks of cash, Pali's...

And I am not so sure I like the unknowns about this guy -

Former military chief Benny Gantz has mounted a serious challenge to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ahead of April 9 polls by maintaining a tough-guy aura with only vague policy ideas.

When he declared in December as an electoral rival to Netanyahu, the 59-year-old ex-paratrooper who rose to become a respected military chief of staff had no political experience.

But since then, polls show his Blue and White alliance becoming a threat to four-time premier Netanyahu as he emerges as a security hawk but centrist on social issues such as religion and state.

The alliance is co-led by former finance minister Yair Lapid and includes two other ex-military chiefs.

Gantz has presented himself as someone who can heal divisions in Israeli society he says Netanyahu has exacerbated.

He has also pledged to improve public services and show "zero tolerance" for corruption -- a reference to graft allegations facing Netanyahu.

Israel's attorney general has announced that he intends to charge Netanyahu with bribery, fraud and breach of trust pending a hearing.

Netanyahu denies all the allegations.

Gantz's campaign is unrolling with military precision with the aim of placing him at the heart of the Israeli consensus, espousing what one opponent called "a supermarket" of policies.

The goal, commentators say, is aimed at taking votes from Netanyahu's right-wing coalition without alienating the centre.

Haaretz newspaper recently interviewed Gantz's elder sister, Shoshi Inbar, who said even she didn't know her brother's political views.

"I have no idea," she said. "He was a soldier his whole life. I kept telling him: 'At least tell me whom you voted for'" but he never replied, she said.

Not getting warm and fuzzy feelings about this guy...and it bothers me.  How can you be tough from the middle?  That's where you lose on everything.  Something just isn't Kosher here...

Israel gets a do-over thanks to Lieberman and his Bibi-hating ilk running the Pelosi-Schumer Playbook - lie, distort, drag out and blame the opposition.

Yair seems a feisty lad, I like that.  The LA Slimes?  Yeah, not so much...like pushing the Trump-hate and Trump-Coup...these demonazi's also despise Bibi and any Jew who fights them.

He once tweeted that there was no such entity as “Palestine” because the Arabic language has no letter for “P.” (It’s pronounced Falesteen in both Arabic and Hebrew.)

Heh, good to know.

In December 2018, he was temporarily suspended from Facebook after posting a series of anti-Muslim posts, including this one: “Do you know where there are no terror attacks? In Iceland and Japan. Coincidentally there’s also no Muslim population there.”

No, LA Slimes douchenozzle and co-conspirator with socialist-fascist media goons...he was suspended for saying the TRUTH!  Islam is banned in Japan, scathead!

Demonazi's...tired of their lies!
